30 of the strangest things that are banned in the world

Recommended Posts

Pick your favourite I am not posting them all. No sheep were harmed during research.

 

One is that in Melbourne a man walking down the street in a dress is banned.

Dancing in a nightclub after midnight in Tokyio is banned and the best reincarnation is illegal in China unless you are a Bhudist monk and sent in an application.

I wish the UK banned Red Bull like France did, horrible stuff.

Energy drinks in general please. It's all rancid.

I'm surprised it didn't list the town in Italy where 'ugly' women were banned from the beach.

Why would you want something you don't like banned? Just don't consume it lol

 

For the record I'm not a fan of energy drinks either.

Energy drinks are wrong though. I know people that literally drink them as a replacement for water and they're not for that.

Well that's their problem not yours. You see people drink alcohol as a replacement for water, and eat chocolate as a replacement for fruit. Are we going to ban them too?

I was being more tongue-in-cheek to be honest. Obviously people can put what they want in their bodies, but Christ I just can't see the catch of energy drinks, taste like shite with a sugar content high enough to give you diabetes in a sip. And that's not mentioning the other shite they put into it...

Totally agree with you. It's even worse if you work at a school. I see kids walking into school after just finishing a 35p can of blueshite at 8:30 in the morning. I do think it should be banned for under 16 year olds. Kids shouldnt be drinking it and when some of the drinks are so cheap you have to question what they put in them.

Monster, Red Bull, Boost, relentless and all the own-brand ones like blue bolt are rank.

Mountain Dew on the other hand is beaut. Obviously it's ridiculously unhealthy but still :D

Why do all the goth types you see in town all hang around chugging Monster at 8 in the morning? They seem to be always wearing fingerless gloves too.

We're currently on holiday in Orlando and all Disney parks have now banned 'selfie sticks'. Good decision. If I had my way I'd ban them from all public places. How did we ever manage before? Oh that's it, we handed our camera to a stranger and asked them to take a photo of us.....

Would you ask the stranger to risk his life balancing on a ledge of a castle or something to take a photo. Selfie sticks can capture landscapes or images in a way that no humans can so there is nothing wrong with it. 

 

I appreciate that some people can be over-zealous with it though. I can also understand how some people dislike it because it embody the vanity tendencies of our society but I think the hatred for it can be bit too over-exaggerated though.
